How to eat pineapple buns on the immigration ship

Chapter 138 The Role of Soybeans

When Xiangchuan brought out the bean dregs pancakes, Xiangqi and Lin Ming were arguing about "Which one is better, sweet milk or sweet soy milk?" Xiangqi didn't like the slight beany smell left in sweet soy milk, while Lin Ming was opposed to adding sugar to pure milk. The taste is not very cold.

"If you don't like sweet milk, why did you drink it with me before?" Xiangqi exposed his partner harshly.

"That's because I have no choice." After saying these words, Lin Ming wiped a handful of bitter tears in his heart. Before the emergence of soy milk, the only drinks that could be called juice, milk and fruit milk mixed with the two. It seems to be a choice of three, but it is actually a choice of two. If you drink juice all day long, your mouth will be a little sore, and Sister Kagawa does not let the two of them drink only juice for a long time, so they drink milk and juice instead, but mix lactose + sugar. He couldn't get used to the taste no matter what!

"Do you dislike the sweet milk made by my sister?" Xiangqi raised his eyebrows. His expression was very similar to Xiangchuan's, which made Ouyang Yating and the other two people sitting around the dining table sigh that they were indeed sisters.

"I never said that. Ah, Sister Xiangchuan! Don't listen to her nonsense!" Lin Ming yelled at Xiangqi on the ground at first, but when he saw Xiangchuan coming to the dining table with a dinner plate, he looked helplessly Looking at the two of them, he suddenly panicked and hurriedly explained.

You can't offend the cook even if you offend anyone. Lin Ming can be said to be self-taught.

Xiangchuan blinked, his eyes moving back and forth between his sister and Lin Ming, and it took him a long time to say: "This is pretty good."

Before everyone could get lost in thought, their attention was first attracted by the pancakes that were served. The main reason was that the aroma was very attractive. It had a bit more of the aroma that they had just tasted in soy milk than the usual pancakes. After taking a bite, There is a fresh bean aroma between the teeth, wrapped in beef or melted syrup, making it even more delicious.

Xiangchuan originally thought about making some fried bean dregs according to the recipe, but when she thought about it, the main food was only steamed buns or noodles. Before, she usually ate fried bean dregs with porridge or rice. I was pretty sure it was suitable for pasta, so I just made a few pancakes and everyone was happy.She planned to think about the recipe before making fried bean dregs.

Seeing everyone at the dinner table begin to discuss the difference between pancakes with bean dregs and the original ones, Xiangchuan remembered the discussion between his sister and Lin Ming just now.

This is good.She repeated it silently in her mind.

Thinking back to the time when she first arrived 3 years in the future, as a picky modern person, she used ready-made ingredients to make something that (in her opinion) was just enough to eat, and her relatives and friends also liked the things she made. Xiangchuan once thought that no one in modern times would be picky.However, as the types of food increased, everyone, like Lin Ming and Xiang Qi, also had likes and dislikes for the same food, and went back to choose the type they liked.

This is a good tendency in Kagawa's view, because having a tendency to like it means that the food to be launched in the future can be purchased by a specific consumer group, and there will be a market, which is conducive to the entry of food into the market in the 21st century.

——If nothing else, it should at least develop to the point where she has milk tea and small cakes as snacks when she goes out with her sister!
Xiangchuan thought so and took a big bite of a large piece of okara cake.

Mmm, sweet.

On the morning of the fourth day, the aroma of milk on the dining table was mixed with some bean aroma. After much hesitation, Xiang Weiguo finally decided to take the bean dregs pancakes and soy milk to the company - to argue with the shareholders.

The original use of edible fungi to persuade shareholders to agree to submit an application for the inclusion of edible fungi as food and related food development applications to the Bureau of Agriculture has been wasted. If it weren’t for the fragrant stir-fried shiitake mushrooms from Class [-] of Senior High School, the competition was broadcast live. Chicken and mushroom chicken soup conquered other high-level government officials who watched the live broadcast at the time, and the establishment of the edible fungi experimental field would not be so smooth.

But soybeans are different. There is no precedent for this!And this thing is not even included in the category of food ingredients, medicinal materials and condiments. If you want to apply, you must have a mountain of irrefutable results, so originally Xiang Weiguo planned to wait for the eldest daughter to give them their so-called "soy sauce" I submitted the application after making it - after all, condiments have a higher gold content, but this plan was disrupted by the soy milk and bean dregs cakes that my eldest daughter suddenly made after only two days.

What's the meaning?Is it possible that beans can also be used as drinks and ingredients?Can it even be made into a staple food like flour?Xiang Weiguo looked at the large pot of soy milk in his hand, thinking about the market for staple food ingredients that might be turbulent in the future, and felt very confused.

Ainuo, whose family is engaged in the food business, also had the same question, but as a member of the Tongue Club, he didn't have as many concerns as Xiang Weiguo, so he chose to ask his president directly.

"Staple food... I read information before that some countries in ancient times did use it as a staple food. However, due to some characteristics of beans, they are not the first choice for staple food in most countries." "Characteristics?" There is food on the table. Everyone eating the bean dregs cake stopped what they were doing and looked at her.

"That means eating too much will make your stomach bloated." Xiangchuan was actually very hesitant about whether to bring up this topic at the dinner table.

Oh—everyone in high school or above who had some knowledge of high school medicine suddenly understood and hesitated whether to continue eating.

"Fatigue?" Xiangqi, who is not a high school student, is now full of questions.

"It means you can fart." Lin Ming, a brat, took over the topic directly, and not surprisingly received a slap on the back from Xiang Qi, who was blushing.

Indeed, this is not a topic that should be discussed at breakfast.

"Ahem, but beans are still very good as a complementary food." Seeing the atmosphere at the dinner table getting weird, Xiangchuan, as the instigator, still felt a little guilty, so he quickly changed the topic, "Soybeans are rich in starch and protein. , so it is often eaten as a complementary food with rice and pasta.”

"What is supplementary food?" This time it was Ouyang Yating's turn to ask.

Not only Ouyang Yating, but everyone also had doubts on their faces.

Only then did Xiangchuan remember that modern food directly mixes staple food and ingredients to make liquid food and solid food, and there are production escorts to ensure supply. There is no shortage of food, and there is no need for supplementary food to match the staple food.

Xianggawa, a non-agricultural student, has little knowledge in this area and can only tell everyone her own understanding: supplementary grains and staple foods are mixed, mostly high-starch crops, which can reduce the consumption of staple foods and improve the taste of staple foods.The most famous supplementary food in Xiangchuan's impression is probably one of the must-kill artifacts of the protagonist in various ancient novels - sweet potato, because this thing was really rare in ancient times.On the contrary, beans are common in China, but they lack development.

What the two of them probably have in common is that eating too much causes bloating, right?Xiangchuan complained silently in his heart.

However, this popular science is really just "food knowledge" to everyone at the table. If the Third Ship Group, which is famous for its agricultural products, will be short of staple food, then the other Eleven Ship Group will definitely be greatly affected. .Therefore, when it comes to "adding supplementary grains to reduce the consumption of staple food due to insufficient staple food", everyone classifies it into the category of "ancient people's food culture".

In fact, when the country got out of the state of food shortage, these supplementary grains were indeed transformed into other functional ingredients. Sweet potatoes became baked sweet potatoes, dried sweet potatoes and other snacks, or were directly made into staple food ingredients such as sweet potato powder, and soybeans became They are regarded more as ingredients in dishes. They can often be seen in stir-fry and soup dishes, followed by being transformed into condiments such as soy sauce, bean paste, and Northeastern bean paste.If they don’t often read time travel novels or study agriculture, few people would be aware of their original identity as supplementary food.

When Kagawa got the soybeans, he had no intention of developing them into supplementary grains. As for the beans, if they were not used to make soy sauce, soup, and soy milk to make tofu, it would be a waste.

…………Um?

Tofu?

Xiangchuan bit the straw and sucked the soy milk, seeming to think of something.
